・ Date: 1920-30s

・ Material: Wool

This is a vintage Japanese wool jacket from the 1920s to the 30s. It is believed to have been worn by the leader of the fire brigade.

The history of the fire brigade dates back to the Meiji era, and it served as an emergency fire-fighting department until it was reorganized into a guard team in 1939.

Though little is known about the guards, fire brigades are almost non-existent today, which adds to the rarity of this item.

The design is similar to police and military uniforms, and the black color adds to its imposing and intense look.

Wearing it does not come off as cosplay but rather gives a fashionable, cool impression.

While the jacket shows signs of wear, such as fabric and stitching damage, its historical value and uniqueness make it an exceptional piece.

This jacket is a must-have for history enthusiasts or designers who appreciate rare finds.

The availability of such items is steadily decreasing, so don’t miss your chance to own this rare piece.
